Motosliders are one of the best on the market and are relatively cheap.

And for f###s sake speak English.

I agree from all the good comments I have heard about them, and all the horror stories of R&G's on here.

I am in the process of getting some.

yep they are brilliant. And they didn't snap off when I threw the bike down the road, they kinda ground down a bit. Gave me minimal expense to repair, without them it would have been worse.

Easy to fit apparently, and are available through ebay from SVracing parts. You can only get em from the US, Engine sliders ad swingarm bobbins come in at about £68 for the set, but they are cheaper than R&G.

The best were the JHS ones, unfortunately they are no longer available, but the Motoslider are just as good.

As Dizzy said, source them from 'SVracing Parts' on Ebay as Nate at Motosliders has yet to make another batch.
